I’m Still Grateful

My best friend and I are constantly talking about how much we dislike our jobs. In fact, I don’t know which of us hates our job the most. I think he’s better off than I am because he gets more work/hours, which of course translates into more money. No matter how unhappy we are with our jobs though, we do realize how blessed and fortunate we are to have an income when so many people are out of work.

I don’t like complaining about my job because I don’t ever want to sound unappreciative. But it’s such a fine line between being honest and sounding ungrateful, you know? Hopefully one day I’ll be able to earn money from doing something I love. Or at least something that’s a little more secure, such as Radiologic Technician Jobs. Jobs in the healthcare field seem to be some of the most reliable since people always require the service.

Not For Sale

A few weeks ago my aunt told me that she had purchased a table for a flea market being held by her church and she wanted me to make some stuff that she could sell. I was all for the idea, but as the date got closer I kind of backed out. I really didn’t have any time to make new stuff and the stuff that I did make I didn’t want to part with. I couldn’t stand the idea of selling things that I worked so hard on. Especially for $1 at a flea market.

I did end up giving her a bunch of stuff to sell though. I wanted to keep my word, even if the stuff wasn’t handmade. Hopefully she appreciated that at least. I hope the next time an opportunity to purchase a table at a flea rolls around I’ll be ready. I’d love to have Display Banner Stands with promotional stuff for my website as well as homemade products.

For Mother

My mother is the easiest woman in the world to shop for. There are only about five things that she really loves to receive as gifts. Even if she doesn’t get either of those things she is always so grateful and appreciative. I don’t think I’ve ever met someone as kind and appreciative as her. That’s why I always want to shower her with love and buy her anything that she wants. She’s awesome! I’m actually working on a surprise for her right now. I had planned to surprise her with a new bed, but that fell through.

I have a few things in mind that I want to do for my mom. I don’t think any will include buying new jewelry, although I know customizing mothers rings does sound appealing to many people. That’s a great thing to do for your mom if she loves jewelry. Maybe you guys should keep that in mind for Christmas or an upcoming birthday.

Hate To Think About It…

Today my mom ran into a family friend who recently lost her mother and it was an eye-opening experience. She was telling my mom how hard it is trying to get all of her mom’s affairs in order and how stressful it is trying to pay for everything. The stuff she was telling my mom really blew my mind. I never knew dying was so complicated. She was telling her so many things that we never knew. There is so much you have to do with wills and estates and all kinds of things. Wow.

It was crazy hearing her say all of that since I don’t even have life insurance, let alone a will. I hate thinking about people around me dying and I never want to talk about stuff like that, but I need to get over it because it is so important to have your affairs in order before you die or your family will definitely suffer. I need life insurance and a will, stat!
